Preset Three (Wild Rover)

Liner Notes

Hey! Just a heads up - this is purely for laughs! 🎭

What started as a deep artistic endeavor somehow turned into me having way too much fun with an old Irish tune. Think of it as creative playtime rather than any real commentary or criticism. I got carried away because, well, who doesn't love putting new words to classic melodies?

And while I could've gone for something profound... sometimes you just need to embrace the silly! So grab your imaginary pint, and let's not take ourselves too seriously. This is just me messing around and having a blast with some public domain tunes! 🎵

I used a karaoke track - vocals and words are mind.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been sharing my journey, all raw and unplanned
My morning routines and my skincare brand
But truth brings in pennies while fiction pays grand
And I'm tired of pretending I don't understand

[Chorus]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
Will I be real authentic
Just act it some more

[Chorus Variation]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
'Cause true raw emotion
Won't pay like before

[Verse 2]
I've been mining my trauma for likes and for views
Each tear-streaked confession's carefully cubed
The rawer the content, the higher it moves
And honesty's just how you market the news

[Chorus]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
Will I be real authentic
Just act it some more

[Chorus Variation]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
'Cause true raw emotion
Won't pay like before

[Verse 3]
My breakdown last Tuesday was take twenty-three
Had to get just the right shade of vulnerability
The comments all love how I'm raw, how I'm free
But raw's just a filter in preset three

[Chorus]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
Will I be real authentic
Just act it some more

[Chorus Variation]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
'Cause true raw emotion
Won't pay like before

[Verse 4]
My coffee's gone cold while I perfect each shot
The realness you see took me hours to plot
I learned from the best how to give what you sought
Their millions prove fake truth's the best truth we've got

[Chorus]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
Will I be real authentic
Just act it some more

[Chorus Variation]
And it's no, nay, never (no, nay, never)
No, nay, never, no more
'Cause true raw emotion
Won't pay like before
